Yeah, the thing is this. I'm not especially enthusiastic about a new tank line which consists mainly of hand-me-downs, requisitioned goods and home-modded stuff. Even the French line had their own identity of sorts.

Think I'll probably hawk off the Chinese starter and take the free slot. Not real interested in going up that line.

Echoing this so very much. Most of the Chinese line are either Chinese acquisitions of tanks from other nations, licensed copies, or derivatives, with many of them being based off the Soviet tree. The only really interesting tank in the tree is the Type-97 Chi-Ha since it's a Japanese tank we haven't seen before, and that's at Tier III. If I wanted to have Soviet-looking tanks, then I'll go up the Soviet line

As an aside, I went this past couple of days from having no Tier VI medium tanks to having 3 of them within the same day: the M4A3E8, the Cromwell, and the VK3601. Of the three, the VK3601 is gonna be the most painful to grind, since unlike the other two whose modules I've already unlocked from the Heavy tank tree the 3601 is starting out from scratch.

Now I already knew what to expect from the Easy 8 and the VK3601 since I've had both tanks before, but the Cromwell... this thing handles like MAGIC

We shouldn't judge the Chinese tanks purely based on their external appearance. Maybe tiers 1-5 will be literal copies, but starting from tier 6 the differences from other nations will be huge. I'm expecting a cross between Russian and French tanks.

Also, there is a tank that looks exactly like the Type 62, called the WZ131. I'm almost disappointed.

And in the hands of an expert like Kimidori, it's pretty devastating too. However, I've found the thing way undergunned, as it's best gun is the 75mm, which is very similar to the default Sherman gun except in ROF.

With the nerf they did to the arty, now is harder to defend yourself if you are forced to in close combat, since even a scout can oneshot you (also is even harder to hit some targets in places where you could hit them before).

Personally I didn't notice a thing when I faced a Grille in a 1vs1 situation then again I had a pretty awful streak today: few kills, poor results while the team wins (wasted daily bonus), my Churchill I couldn't kill off a Pz38nA (two non penetrating shots, no idea how I managed to do that) and to top it all off I accidentally bought a tool box half million credits down the drain.

If you're bored of the recent trend of tiny RC cars and helicopters, a company called Armortek has a line of incredibly detailed RC tanks that will surely pique your curiosity. The Centurion Mk5/2 is a 1/6-scale behemoth that even sounds like the real thing thanks to a gas-powered engine and real metal treads.
